Saw him at The Venue at Victoria station back in the early 80's just before the Flag album was released. What a mad night that was!!!! Also saw Depeche mode there just after they had a number one hit with New life. I feel very lucky to be able to have been at the start of all the synth music. Still play it all to this day!
I remember all those years back , me and my friend were into fad gadget , we used to take this single to discos and get the djs to play it , not many people knew of him back then .

Thanks for sharing. Long time ago since I heard FG
Back to the past.... bangelijke muziek hé! Fad Gadget The Best!
Frank Tovey's name should be put into the dictionnary next to the word "underatted"
Scratched his head, then pulled his ear
Reached out for a glass of beer
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand
From the pocket it pulled five pound
Ricky bought another round
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand
In the dark it found his zip
Wiped his mouth when he was sick
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand
Six pints later he waved goodbye
Picked his nose and squashed a fly
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand
Slamming the door it grasped the wheel
Now Ricky's full of man appeal
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand
Ricky contravened the highway code
The hand lies severed at the side of the road
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand
Ricky's hand

Minimal synth-sound masterpiece!
This is not the original 7 inch version. Still good though.
Brilliance. The perfect avante garde pop tra,ck.
All fads original stuff has been pulled by his wife on the net. All we have is live versions of the original songs now. Sad but true.

The 'original version'..

I would hate to contradict Mrs. Tovey's wishes, but I sure gave Frank a lot of royalties over the years!
So these versions are kind of remixes?

Thanks for the info. I won't bother looking for any Fad vids any more.
love the original. Love this one. Cause the person who made this one loves the original song. Mathematics of love.
I saw him in mr pickwicks liverpool on his under the flag tour
